I was planning on getting a GSM model on an upcoming trip to the US (so that I could pop a SIM into it if need be, and also to get GPS), but if it's locked to AT&#38;T then that seals my decision to get a WiFi model (and tether to my iPhone or use my MiFi).<p>Apple, you just lost an upgrade sale. I'm sure I won't be the only one.
